Overall a lovely cottage and we would stay again - a little costly in the summer - but probably worth it due to the high quality
My only 2 quibbles were :
the sofa, though very nice is not very comfortable
And the balcony was very slippy and in the wet quite dangerous - you can get tapes to help grip - or just keep them clean of algae

Lovely holiday apartment, plenty of room for medium sized family. The beach and beautiful gardens right outside. The train station is a short walk away, as is the town of Falmouth. We would stay here again.
